Inside South Africa's Dirty Fuel Trade

Описание: South Africa’s fuel system is under attack — but not by hackers.
It’s being hijacked by smugglers, rogue truckers, corrupt officials, and shadowy networks blending fuel in the dark.

This is fuel laundering — and it’s draining billions from South Africa’s economy while damaging cars, cheating taxpayers, and funding organized crime.

In this video, we break down:
👉 What fuel laundering is and how it works
👉 The tricks smugglers use at borders and fuel depots
👉 How diesel gets mixed with paraffin or filtered red diesel to evade taxes
👉 The hidden players — from importers to retailers — keeping this trade alive
👉 Why this black-market fuel is hurting YOU, even if you don’t realize it

From Mozambique’s Maputo Corridor to border towns like Musina and Nelspruit, illegal fuel moves every day — and SARS estimates R3.6 billion vanished in 2023 alone through this scheme.

🎥 Think of this as a crash course into South Africa’s underground fuel economy — the dirty side of clean energy.

If you care about corruption, broken governance, and how everyday South Africans are paying the price — this video is for you.
